The Chrisleys havedenied the charges against them. “The allegations contained in the indictment are based on complete falsehoods. The Chrisleys are innocent of all charges,” said Todd’s attorneys, Bruce H. Morris and Stephen Friedberg, in a statement to PEOPLE.
On Aug. 14, theypleaded not guilty.
Last week, the Chrisleyscame together to supporttheir formerly estranged son,Kyle, 27, who was hospitalized due to “an adverse reaction to his medication,” according to a spokesperson for the family.
“I’ve seen all the stories about my dad’s indictment all over the internet,” Kyle said in aFacebook post. “I know the interview I did bashing my dad OVER A YEAR AGO is being shared on social media. Honestly, I’m tired of it. You guys don’t have the facts and I need to set the record straight once and for all.”
“Everything I said in my interview was a lie,” Kyle said, referencing a2017 interview withGood Morning Americain which he said Todd bragged about not having to pay taxes. “These allegations against my dad are all LIES!”
Kyle said he is now sober and feels immeasurable guilt for speaking against his father.

“I can’t take it back so I’m telling you now, with a clear mind, my mom and dad have done nothing wrong! Today, I am sober. I am working, and I am at a good place in my life,” he said. “I just want to fix what I’ve done wrong so that I am able to forgive myself.”
“I will continue to stand as a united front alongside my mom, my dad, and the rest of my family,” he concluded. “My hope is that my sister Lindsie will seek the same forgiveness from my daddy as I have, that he is able to forgive her, and that my family will one day be whole again.”
Kyle claimed it was his sisterLindsieand his biological mom Teresa Terry who spoke to authorities about his father and stepmom Julie.
“Lindsie has been a constant target of lies, harassment and threats from her family and as a result, has been distancing herself from the Chrisley family since 2017,” the statement continued. “Lindsie is currently processing the events that have unfolded. We will continue to cooperate with law enforcement and pray for a just resolution.”

Shortly after the indictment, news surfaced thatLindsie had accused her father and brother Chase Chrisley, 23, of attempted extortionover an alleged sex tape of her andBachelorettecontestant Robbie Hayes.
Both Todd and Chase have denied Lindsie’s allegations and accused the 29-year-old of being involved in two extramarital affairs with Hayes and another formerBachelorettecontestant, Josh Murray.
In response to Todd’s claims that Lindsie engaged in two extramarital affairs and appeared in a sex tape, her attorney said in a statement to PEOPLE, “Lindsie would like nothing more than to be left alone and go about her own business,” adding, “Unfortunately, certain members of her family will not let her live in peace. We are flabbergasted at the audacity of Todd and Chase Chrisley, who are more focused on attacking my client rather than defending themselves against the allegations of criminal conduct. … Lindsie prays for a just outcome so that she can go forward with her life safe from those who are looking to do her harm.”
